2 Samuel 18:12-13

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² But the man said to Joab, “Even if I had one thousand shekels of silver weighed out into my hands, I would not reach my hand out against the king’s son. We heard the king command you, Abishai, and Ittai, ‘Watch out for the young man Absalom for me.’ ¹³ If I had acted irresponsibly with my life^[a]—and nothing is hidden from the king—you would not have stood by me.”
